Bali Heat, No Rain, and the Upside-Down Ice Cream That Didn’t Fall: Dairy Queen (Mall Bali Galeria) Review
8:54 PMBali’s “rainy season” is cosplaying permanent summer. Snapchat said 33°C; my pores said sauna mode. With no AC at home (two fans doing interpretive dance), I took four showers and then did something radical: went outside for ice cream.
Destination:
Dairy Queen, Mall Bali Galeria. Because if the weather won’t cool, I will.
What we ordered (prices I paid)
-
Blizzard Green Tea Chunk IDR 36.000 (before 10% tax)
-
Blizzard Oreo Ovomaltine *(reg size; forgot exact price)
The upside-down test was a pass. They flipped it; it didn’t move. Sorcery? Chemistry? I don’t care. It stayed in the cup, which is more than I can say for my willpower in summer.
Flavor notes (speed run)
-
Green Tea Chunk: Sweet with a gentle matcha vibe; mix-ins give it chew so you don’t finish in three bites.
-
Oreo Ovomaltine: Crunchy chocolate chaos; leans sweeter. The teen inside me approved.
Vibe check
-
Air-conditioned life raft in a mall that understands Bali humidity.
-
Quick counter service; it’s dessert therapy with minimal small talk.
Pros & cons (quick scan)
Pros
-
❄️ Cold, fast, reliable sugar fix
-
🤸 Upside-down gimmick is fun (and oddly reassuring)
-
🛍️ Mall location = AC + parking + errands excuse
Cons
-
🍭 Can lean sweet; order size wisely
Tips to win the Blizzard
-
If you’re heat-grumpy, choose a regular size (melts slower than your patience).
-
Ask for less syrup if you’re sugar-sensitive.
-
Sit inside until your core temperature forgives you.
